Thanks, can you specify your criticism a little more for me please?

Sure, its several tho. The simplest is probably that some of the animations only show up for a split second. The bigger ones are the difficulty and progression speed, spent like 2-3 hour playing, literally didn't get anywhere aside getting a few spells and another more from catching monsters, saw a total of 1 CG (the basic game over) scene like 5 times and that's that. Also, no gallery..? Like, idk, as i said, i like the art and comedic premise but then it just doesn't go anywhere.

You can change the speed of the grope images in the options menu. It's called the "battle timer" or something like that.
There is a gallery in the game, TWO actually. did you open your demonicon after catching a monster OR check the bonus section on the main menu? (sometimes they are bugged, but they are in the game)
Also, of course it doesn't go anywhere -the game is currently in development. Not sure how long you've been here, but if a game title doesn't have a big blue COMPLETED in its title that means it's still being developed. This website has a lot of games like ours that get feedback through the community while we make the game.

As i said, it doesn't really go anywhere in 3 hours (well, 4 hours now), and yeah, i know its incomplete, i just mean the lack of proper cg's you unlock in that time, only in game stuff mostly. And i just checked, yeah, there's indeed two galleries, but they're missing a bunch of the scenes and characters i encountered, the game over scene, the captured mini cg's, and a lot more, so despite being two i'd say there's barely half a gallery. More than that, the book only shows half the scenes for the stuff i captured... Guess its because i need for it to happen to unlock? So yeah as i said the grind is unreal and progression is very lacking. Also the crane guy keeps resetting the rewards and telling me i cheated..? Also got hard locked after 40 minutes of play near the end of lvl 2 end today that i tried playing again, probably needs an unstuck button (clicked the attack option and it wound's let me press anything so that's that).

Sorry to tell you gang but most cgs are in game. There are some that arent in the gallery you cant see so i understand the frustration, but majority of them are there in terms of the H. The book only shows scenes you have acquired, just like the actual gallery so you cant really complain about not having it all yet. The way the game flows you're supposed to get them over multiple runs anyways. Not trying to discredit your critiques or anything, but they just feel a little unjust for a game mid development. As for the crane "cheating" this text usually pops up if you grab more than one thing at once.

Never grabbed more than one even though i tried. One time it happened it did have a ball that's stuck on the pipe's wall, but i already took it before, it just got stuck. The other times it happened i have no idea why, one of those was even when i was in the shop blowsing and not even doing anything.

Mid development? That's true, but i doubt the game loop will change much from here, getting 1 cg (the game over) that you can't even view and 12~ images of groping plus maybe a couple more if you capture stuff in 2+ hours of playing is still pretty insane for an H game. And no, as i said, its lacking a SIGNIFICANT amount of stuff, not just 'some'. The game over, the boss fight screens and heroine variations depending on outfit, pre lvl 2 platform resting cg variations, captured images, characters met, moving avatars with otutfit variation. But these at least ARE things that can be changed, hence me writing here, and also about the bugs. Speaking of, the compression bomb (300mb>4GB) might be worth mentioning too

Cardinal is really good at compressing files

How do I enter the hole in the beginning? Do I have to have finished the second level for that to become available? Nowhere does it say how I can go in there.

Yeah but there isn't even anything in the game that's even remotely this big? Unless the 9 (?) moving portraits of the heroines are rendered in 8K 120fps
well there are 9 of those animations in game rn and each of them are like 30-60 frames long. There's also somewhere close to 200 battle CGs and a bunch of music files.
I'm not the coder though, so i don't really know what the biggest stuff is. I do draw all the art in 300 DPI PNGs and there's a ton of art.

You gotta catch the spell stone in Fuu's tent. (he's a little green rock) and then after that you can go in the hole.

300 DPI for semi pixelated art seems excessive, but you do you, i'm a fan of both pixel art and the mid way stuff. Even so, each picture, given most don't have a background and the limited color palette should doubtfully take over 1mb, so with the 9 animations, that's 300 mb tops. 3.7 gigs more of engine for a 2d game is crazy, its probably unneeded unity assets and whatnot, not a programmer either, but you might want to clear that up for future release. Or not, 4 gigs isn't much these days and it doesn't seem to slow the game down much aside the occasional hiccup. Would definitely be nice to include everything in the galleries too though, as i said prior, far too much stuff isn't there.

Yeah I didn’t realize people wanted everything in there.

how much of this game is going to be animated in the future? game play itself is very fun but i do find it odd that the sex scenes are not animated. To be honest as cool as it would be, im not saying that the game needs it.

There will be a lot of animations (I have drawn many for a future mechanic) but I’m afraid the 80+ battlesex images already in game will remain static.
I’m the only artist on the team and animation multiplies the already giant workload by a lot. Let’s say I made each battlesex thing into a four frame animation? Now instead of drawing it once I gotta potentially draw it four times.
I am practicing animation with the project in places though, but I’m keeping it a secret for now.
I do agree it would be awesome if everything was animated but sadly Its just too much work for me to ever do, the game would never release.

Excellent game, the only thing I can say is that it would be missing a difficulty option, sometimes the monsters arrive in groups of 3 very frequently, which makes it very complicated, especially with the blue enemies in area 2, which give defense to the other enemies.
